Hutt man gives away his house bit by bit
Conrad Coom could not bear to see his Lower Hutt house bulldozed down and taken to the tip, so he decided to give it away.
A developer purchased the 1940s property and indicated he only wanted the land. Coom did not want to see the house go to waste so he decided to take the house apart and give it all away.
Coom hopes his story will shine a light on the lack of recycling within the property development industry. He’s removed the roof, flooring, weatherboards, fixtures, architraves and door jambs. All that’s left days out from officially handing over the keys is the framing, which Coom has not been able to take down so far due to a hold-up with the power company.
🌉🛶 Early Birds Might Crack This One First… or Not? 🥚🧠
A person is crossing a bridge and sees a boat full of people, yet there isn't a single person on board.
How is this possible?

🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉
The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.
This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.
We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?
